All I Believe (Firsts and Forever, #10)(51)



I grinned at that and said, “This is amazing,” as I got out of the car. “Thank you. Next time, it’s my treat. That means we’re going tent camping in an alley behind a Seven-Eleven, because that’s what I can afford. Begin lowering your expectations now.”

“Why an alley behind a Seven-Eleven?”

“So I can buy you all the Big Gulps you want. I may be broke, but you’re not dehydrating on my watch!” I winked at him and headed for the front door as he chuckled and caught up to me.

The inside was wide open, airy and white with high ceilings. The entire back wall was glass, and the view of the Mediterranean was absolutely stunning, all the color in the room coming from the sea and sun, the furnishings and artwork left understated so they wouldn’t detract from that view. “You did well,” I murmured as I wandered into the main living area and trailed my fingertips over a smooth glass tabletop.


“I’m glad you approve, despite my penchant for gaudy displays of my affection.”

“Is that what you’re doing? Displaying your affection?”

“Oh yeah. I’m in full peacock mode. Only, instead of feathers, I’m trying to show off with rented cars and houses.”

“And chartered jets. Don’t forget that feather.”

“You seemed unimpressed.”

I gathered him in my arms and put my head on his shoulder. “Not true. I’m very impressed that you’d try to do so much for me, and I really do appreciate it. The flight, this house, and getting to ride in that convertible are all amazing. But it just isn’t necessary. Peacocks put on a show to attract a mate. I’ve been attracted to you since I was fourteen.”

“With a few years’ hiatus in between.”

“I never forgot about the sweet, cute boy at the fountain, and I may not have known it was you when we met a second time, but I sure as hell was attracted to you the moment I saw you again. I’m going to go ahead and call that a lifetime of attraction, despite a lack of proximity for a portion of it.”

He rubbed my back as he held me, and admitted quietly, “I feel like such an * for running off with no explanation a couple weeks ago, so I guess I’m trying to make it up to you. It’s entirely possible that I overdid it, but I just had this need to spoil you and take care of you after doing that to you.”

“You didn’t do anything to me. There was something you had to deal with, so you went off and did that.”

He began punctuating his words with kisses. “But,” he kissed my cheek softly, “you…” another soft kiss to the cheek, “deserve so much more,” he kissed my ear gently, “than that.” Luca licked my earlobe and sent a shiver of pleasure down my spine, directly to my cock.

“Will you do something for me?” I asked as I nuzzled his cheek and wrapped my hands around his waist.

“Of course, Nicky. Anything.”

“Fuck me so hard and for such a long time that I won’t be able to remember my own name by the time you’re done with me.”

I felt his entire body react to that, a tremor going through him as he ground his hips against mine. “I can absolutely do that,” he said, his voice deep and a bit rough.

In the next moment he was towing me up the stairs, clutching my hand. When we got to the huge master bedroom, he practically threw me on the mattress and began stripping me. He actually tore the shirt off my body. I didn’t even sort of mind.

As soon as he got me naked, he was on top of me, licking and kissing and caressing me as I moaned and writhed beneath him. Then he was up in a flash, exclaiming, “I’ll be right back. Don’t go anywhere.” That made me grin. As if I was likely to wander off.

He dashed through a door to my left, giving me a moment to take in the beautiful bedroom, which just like the downstairs was white and modern and understated, so all the focus was on the spectacular view of the sea. The ceiling was incredibly high, and the glass wall extended maybe twenty feet up, so the room was bathed in sunlight. A portion of the glass wall had been slid open, and a crisp, briny breeze filled the room. I let my eyes close and took a deep, cleansing breath.

My lids flew open a moment later, as Luca dashed back into the room. He was naked and rock hard, and I couldn’t help but stare at his thick, swollen cock, which pointed at his abs. He fumbled with the wrapper on a new bottle of lube, almost dropping the towel and big box of condoms in his hands.

He dove onto the bed and rolled over on top of me, then sat up and quickly made use of the lube and a condom as he straddled my thighs. “This is going to be quick,” he said. “Sorry. I promise I’ll do better with round two, but right now I’m dying to be inside you.”

“I have no problem with any of that,” I said as he repositioned himself between my thighs and put one of my ankles on his shoulder. He slicked my hole and fingered me gently for a few moments, then wiped his hand on the towel and positioned the tip of his cock at my opening.

Luca leaned forward, pushing himself into me as he held my gaze. When he was in me up to his balls, he took a deep, shaky breath. Then he asked me, “Do you like sports?”

I burst out laughing. “Really? We’re going to make small-talk now?”

He nodded his head emphatically. “I’m trying not to cum. It feels so f*cking amazing to be inside you. God, Nicky, you have no idea. I said this was going to be fast, but cumming in two seconds is unacceptable so I’m trying to distract myself.”
